There is a IOS 4.2 Beta available for the iPad but it is for developers only. If you are not a developer and paid the $99.00 even if you were able to download the software you would not be able to use it. After you install the software iTunes checks for the UID of your iPad on the Apple Server and if it doesn't find it you will not be able to use your iPad.P.S. In order for the Apple Server to know your UID you must enter it in the 'Developer's IOS Provisioning Portal' as a registered device.

iOS 4.2 beta3 is now out... If you feel like trying it out a simple google search will find the answers you seek... Beta iOS versions usually are not able to be jailbroken...

The forum has recently added a new rule --

"8a Links to upgrades for BETA software will be deleted. User will receive one warning. A second warning will lead to being banned."

Although you are not actually providing a link to the iOS 4.2 beta, this forum does not tolerate the discussion of acquiring apps and software (including operating systems!) by any method other than those intended by the author / owner / developer / publisher.

Hi Scott , donâ€™t you think too many rule will kill the forum â€¦ in some point i agree with you about the piracy â€¦ but if we go on this way we also should donâ€™t talk about JB as itâ€™s not authorized by Apple and can avoid the warranty â€¦

The rule decision was made by admin and mods in the best interest of the majority of 17000 members to avoid problems. We have spent too much time baby sitting those whom get into trouble and do not understand that beta is pre-release and not current release
That decision is final
